Yes I would consider it spam.
At very least have something else to talk about and when and if I ask what you do then fill me in. Yet at the same time do not use some bullshit conversation.Comment

if I were doing business with you already I wouldn't mind... if I weren't you can be certain I'd probably never sign up to your program...

just don't start the convo with "Hey wanna promote www.shootahotloadupmyass.com ??" Some of us do use ICQ at our day jobs.
I got something like that the other day, my boss was using my system. He was like wtf, I was like fuckin spam.

agree, icq there = means it ok to contact, imoComment

if you don't want to be contacted about business, then don't put your icq there....on this board, it is an unwritten rule that putting your icq in your sig means you want to be contacted about business...some may not like it, but that is the way it works

it depends on how you bring it. My business card says contact me if you have a business opppertunity, a suggestion or a question and is showing my icq (an cell) underneath it so that mean yes its ok. Just don't bullshit around.

For the same reason they have their name and number in the phone book but don't want telemarketers to callOriginally posted by ElvisMansonno. if someone doesn't want to be contacted by icq why would they have desiplayed in their sig?
I think that usually people put their icq #'s in their sig for people to contact them about what THEY are doing. Not to hear what you are doing.Comment

business is like "hey, you want to trade with my site?" or "hey, you selling any domains?" and thats fineOriginally posted by Jaceif you don't want to be contacted about business, then don't put your icq there....on this board, it is an unwritten rule that putting your icq in your sig means you want to be contacted about business...some may not like it, but that is the way it works
but "hey buddy, we just launched another-shitty-paysite.com why dont you sign up and send some traffic?" is kinda differentI don't use ICQ anymore.Comment

I am sure that you are correct. I still don't consider it spam to contact someone about what I am doing.Originally posted by NichePay - StuartDFor the same reason they have their name and number in the phone book but don't want telemarketers to call

Most people who put their icq in their sig are promoting their own programs and sites. I think that sending them unwanted sales pitches for your program might be considered spam.Comment

If we have had no previous engagements or if you and I knew each other through a different company, then anytime you message me or email me with your garb, I will never sign up to your program. This is exactly why I have not signed up to MayorsMoney. The email I recieved from them was from PornCity, and if it does not pertain to porncity, why are you coming to me with it?
SPAM!
And don't try to pull the disclaimer card about us or any sister companies when at the time I gave you my email addy the company being spam never existed. Considering there was even a disclaimer in the first place.Comment

exactly... there's probably at least 5-10 new sites going live everyday, the last thing I want is an icq notification of each and every one of them. If someone I'm sending sales to every day contacts me I wouldn't mind it though.Originally posted by polish_aristocratbusiness is like "hey, you want to trade with my site?" or "hey, you selling any domains?" and thats fine
but "hey buddy, we just launched another-shitty-paysite.com why dont you sign up and send some traffic?" is kinda different

It'd be kinda the same as collecting webmaster emails... it's related spamOriginally posted by rayadp05I rebooted, deleted temp files, history, cookies and everything...still cannot view the news clip. All I see is that fucking gay ass music video from "Rick Roll". Anyone else have a different link to the news clip?Comment

no, its notComment

while I don';t consider it spam, I do get annoyed when someone just hits me up with an advert out of the blue...at least make conversation...also, I'm often busy and if you are hitting me up for the first time, don't be offended if I take a little longer to get back to you, especially if I'm assisting an affiliate or someone else....want to move up my priority list? Don't hit me up with the same sales message everytime I sign on to ICQ. Talk to me, tell me what you want, but don't just keep hounding me. I try to extend this courtesy to everyone I contact as well.Comment

I don't think it's spam.. unless you kept saying over and over again hey Jade join my program..Comment

I am always looking for trades to our program and a blog so I would not have a problem with someone hitting me up....I dont like the blanket spam on ICQ but if you are not a bot and are willing to have a conversation with me, always willing to listenComment
